Crafty Secret Santa 2014

[Tengu]

I got a squirrel cooker from an anon. Im so pleased, even though I have no squirrel...

 

[Dave Budd]

i got a fantastic pop can stove, complete with every tinder and fine firemaking gear known to man, all in a cloth bag! I feel a bit lazy amd tight with my offering after that lot!

I was going to try it out today and get some pictures for this thread, but I spent the whole day swearing at the machinery that I was trying to use instead

Hand carved spoon
Lightstick
Shotgun cartridge safe full of matches with a striker stuck to a sliver of wood
and a bracelet that FITS ME someone's read the threads about big wrists (whoopee)
all in a handmade leather drawstring bag with a handcut lace

Thank you to Santa the mushroom has found a home with its new friends

 

[Biker]

Not to sound too ungrateful here, but I'm still waiting for mine to arrive.

Dear SS do you need my details again? If so, drop Dave a PM.

 

[gjclayton]

I know the reason for the delay with mine but as it stands I'm secret santaless too.

 

[nunzionuk]

I've given up on waiting for mine. Christmas is for given so I hope my SS gets years of use out of what I sent them.

Got to say the PO isn't what it used to be is it. Maybe DaveB could PM the senders of your gifts to get them chased up at the PO?

 

[DaveBromley]

Will be chasing the missing gifts as of today, been away in finland for the last 10 days or so with the Arctic trip to Kittila. I'm sorry to those that havent received their gifts and will make sure you get something even if i have to make em myself!

Thanks Guys

Dave

Very caring of you Dave, but no need to make something yourself and send out, at least for me. I was happy to chip in and as has been said giving is what Christmas is all about. I'm sure whoever was my secret Santa has their reasons and I bear them no ill will.

Welcome back to the fold, hope FInland proved to be just as exciting as it looks in the documentaries.

 

[gjclayton]

Thanks again Dave... No worries about making something for me either!

 

[Mr.punch]

I loved taking part in this and got a lovely pen turned from cocabola thank you to my ss. Dave pm me the address of some one who Santa missed and I will send them something.

 

[cranmere]

I have some pine tar soap from my last batch that I would be delighted to send to anyone who didn't get a package.

 

[Dean]

Same here, am willing to send something to those who did not receive.

 

[DaveBromley]

And thats one of the reasons i love this forum. Well done guys you really do rock!

Dave

How do folks. Not been on here since before christmas. I recieved some lovely chutneys and jams. And a great little leather drinking cup from tengu. Thanks tengu.


Some of you may have read i had quite a nasty finger injury while making a couple of things just before christmas. (One of which was my secret santa pressie)

Well im pleased to say i have made a 90% recovery and can just about use my hand properly again now. Anyway the pressie is finished and will hopefully be on the way tomorrow if i finish work early enough.

To the recipient i apologise for the delay and hope you undersand the reasoning. I abandoned the original gift and put some extra effort into this one as way of an apology for the delay. Cheers kris

 

[Tengu]

Im glad you liked my gifts, I made about 40 jars of assorted preserves, -all gone now!

And the leatherwork; though Im not half the skilled person some folk here are......

 

[gjclayton]

Got mine a few days ago and then couldn't get on the forum.

I am so happy with it! Feel very lucky and very happy to have waited!

This is a keeper and looks great, works great and is sharp as hell!

Thank you so much!
